Frontend Enthusiast

Hello. I'm Kerry, and Ifrontend development.

2019

My coding journey began in 2019 when I started attending a 10 month coding boot camp called Bloc (now called Chegg Skills). I graduated in October and scored my first engineering job a month later. This was working for Skylla, a very small robotics startup (7 people) where I helped build UI's for robot navigation and mapping.

2020

The start of the pandemic, and also the start of working from home. This was a game changer for me and the realization that I am more productive and happier working remotely.

2021

In August, I started my working for Olo, an industry leader in providing online ordering experiences for restaurants. Olo works with 700+ brands and processes on average 2 million orders per day.

2021 - 2024

At Olo I worked on a small team of 3 frontend devs, where we built the UI for Olo's newest product, Olo Pay. This is an end-to-end payment solution, providing brands with payment processing, reporting, and fraud prevention. I was responsible for building out onboarding solutions for customers to sign onto Olo Pay. Most of the repos I worked in were very modern React apps, keeping me on top of the latest advancements. I am also no stranger to working in more mature codebases, as I was frequently helping out in some of Olo's oldest Ember apps built 15+ years ago.

Now

I am grateful to have been able to take some time off to reset and explore some passions of mine. I ended up creating an IG cooking account that gained 4,500 followers in 2 months 😋. I am now ready for my next engineering position!

My biggest passion is traveling. I've traveled across the US and to 13 countries so far, and the travel bucket list grows each day! I live with my husband Jeremie, and the most adorable Burmese cat you could ever meet 😻.
